Hi, I'm Anne
I founded A Betzner Consulting after more than 25 years in behavioral health, public health, and education. That experience leading evaluations, managing multi-year studies, and supporting program teams shapes how I approach every project. Whether it's meeting reporting requirements, strengthening programs, building a compelling funding case or strengthening organizational capacity, I'll partner with you to make evaluation one of your organization's most strategic assets.
Great evaluation isn’t about maximizing data collection. It’s about the judgment to design work that is rigorous enough to trust, feasible enough to implement, and useful enough to change what happens next.
